Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Majority of our staff would say that their favorite thing about working at Lower is the people they work with and it really drives the positive work culture we have in place. Your comment states that you are a current employee, however, we have not had an intern within the last year. While I know the entry level roles in Sales are not what you may have expected within the field, we understand that the field can be demanding, and it may not be a right fit for everyone that comes into the role. While it sounds like the role may have not been what you were looking for, we hope that it brought you further clarity in what type of role you would like to pursue in the future.
